Music as a subject requires many different skill sets; however, even if you do not play a musical instrument you can still develop your musical ear through listening and analysis.

We have provided a mixture of exciting and creative activities for you to engage with over the break.

The music activities included covers a wide range of genres from different time eras and locations. These will look at listening, creativity, analysis, research, musical vocabulary and performance.

Music should always be fun why not try exploring different types of music you enjoy listening to as well.

Students taking GCSE Music will receive a log on for Focus on Sound very soon. This will include set topics and areas to focus on throughout the summer break.

If you do play an instrument remember to keep practising and why not record your performance to show your teacher in September.
